Dr. Shailesh Kumar published a book review titled ‘How to Decolonise Legal Knowledge for All?’

This piece was a review of the book ‘Decolonisation and Legal Knowledge: Reflections on Power and Possibility’ by Professor Folúkẹ́ Adébísí. Shailesh argues: ‘The book is about hope for producing flourishing, newer meaningful anticolonial worlds for all, beyond law schools and universities, and yields suggestions for their materialisation through decoloniality from within the neoliberal-ised law school. Decolonisation, thus, is neither to merely diversify the face of coercive power nor to become a new master. This book, which requires revisits, should be prescribed as an essential text for (legal and non-legal) students, teachers, and activists alike, to learn that to decolonise our legal knowledge and teaching/research, means acknowledgement and complete cessation of the colonial logics and praxes produced by and simultaneously producing the (Euro-modern) law, and to repair the colonial past.’
